Abstract: A method and system for cache replacement among configurable cache sets. In one embodiment, the present invention identifies a cache location corresponding to uncached data received from main memory and determines a data type for the uncached data. The present invention then examines the cache location in at least one of the configurable cache sets which is configured for the data type of the uncached data. Provided that the cache location of at least one of the configurable cache sets is not occupied by valid data and that the same configurable cache set is configured for the data type of the uncached data, the present invention stores the uncached data into that configurable cache set at the cache location without displacing valid data therein. Provided that the cache location of each of the configurable cache sets which is configured for the data type of the uncached data is occupied by valid yet old data, the present invention replaces the old data stored in one of the configurable cache sets at the cache location with the uncached data. This embodiment of the present invention thus provides a method for cache replacement among configurable cache sets.

Abstract: Ce bouchon en matière plastique (10) comprend une portion supérieure ainsi qu'une jupe (12) dotée d'une surface intérieure. Il comporte également des zones de fragilité, des zones flexibles (14) ou panneaux flexibles, de préférence sur la surface intérieure de la jupe (12), afin de permettre à cette jupe de se dilater de manière radiale et périphérique vers l'extérieur lorsque sa surface intérieure est soumise à une force dirigée radialement vers l'extérieur, comme lors de l'éjection par déformation du bouchon, à partir d'un outil de moulage (38). L'invention concerne également un procédé de moulage de ce bouchon éjectable par déformation (10), comprenant les étapes consistant à doter le noyau (38) du moule d'éléments s'étendant vers l'extérieur, de manière à former des zones (14) dans le bouchon dont l'épaisseur est plus mince que l'épaisseur moyenne du bouchon, afin de permettre au bouchon de se dilater radialement vers l'extérieur lorsqu'il est éjecté par déformation à partir de l'outil de moulage (38), avec un écrasement réduit du filetage.

Abstract: The present invention describes a global motion estimation method between an incoming frame F(n) of a sequence of frames and a large static image M(n-1), which is constructed from previous frames F(1), F(2), ..., F(n-1) of the video sequence. This motion estimation method uses a motion model based on a two-dimensional perspective transform, which contains eight motion parameters. In the present invention, the eight motion parameters are the coordinates of the four vertices of the incoming frame. The motion estimation method according to the invention enables any displacement of the four corners of the original rectangular image to fit the next one by optimizing a cost function. Such an invention can be useful for applications related to MPEG-4 and, more especially, to MPEG-7 standard, such as sprite generation or mosaicing.

Abstract: A transplant/implant device for delivering at least one predetermined biologically active compound to a human or animal host system or for another biological function in the host system is produced by genetically engineering vital chondrocytes or mixing chondrocytes with another type of native or genetically engineered cells or mixing chondrocytes with artificial particles having a size comparable to the size of cells or combining at least two of the named steps of engineering or mixing and by subjecting the chondrocytes or the mixture comprising the chondrocytes to three dimensional culture conditions for in vitro production of cartilaginous tissue whereby the cells and/or the artificial particles are immobilized in the cartilaginous tissue. The chondrocytes produce and maintain the cartilaginous tissue and the chondrocytes themselves or cells of another cell type immobilized in the cartilaginous tissue are able to produce and secrete the at least one predetermined compound. The artificial particles are e.g. biosensors. The chondrocytes as well as the cells of the other cell type may originate from the host or from a donor. The cartilaginous tissue proves to constitute favourable conditions for the vital cells and/or artificial particles immobilized therein and for the delivery of the predetermined compound also on a long term basis in particular by preventing or reducing unfavourable reactions by the host system such as immuno reactions or foreign-body reactions.

Abstract: The object of the invention is a system, a device, a terminal and a method for filtering electronic information to be transferred to the terminal through a telecommunication connection. The invention comprises attaching a specific filtering parameter (30-32) by the device transferring the electronic information to the electronic information for the purpose of filtering before the electronic information is transferred to the terminal through the telecommunication connection, and informing the terminal of said filtering parameter (30-32) before the electronic information is transferred to the terminal through the telecommunication connection. In the terminal, the steps comprise checking said informed filtering parameter (30-32) and allowing or preventing the receiving of the electronic information on the basis of said filtering parameter (30-32). In response to said allowing of the receiving, the electronic information is transferred to the terminal through the telecommunication connection, and in response to said preventing of the receiving, the electronic information is not transferred to the terminal through the telecommunication connection.

One process for making these compounds is described and claimed as the condensation between a 1,8-naphthalic anhydride possessing the desired functionalities and the appropriately substituted o-phenylene diamine. Alternatively, o-amino-nitro-aromatics may be condensed with the various 1,8-naphthalic anhydrides when the in situ reduction of the nitro group is accomplished with a suitable reducing agent such as iron powder. The resulting fluorescent compounds can be used as inert fluorescent tracers in industrial water systems.

Abstract: A bearing assembly for a rotary shaft machine comprises a support wall (12)
having an essentially cylindrical passage (18) therethrough. A rolling bearing
(20) is mounted within the passage (18). The inner race (24) is mountable onto
a shaft (22) in such a way as to abut against a shoulder (26) of this shaft (22). A
capsule (32) comprises a cylindrical part (34) and spring means (36). The
cylindrical part (34) is fitted in the passage (18) and receives the outer race
(30). The diameter of the passage (18) is such that the cylindrical part (34),
equipped with the rolling bearing (20), can be slidingly fitted therein. The spring
means (36) bears on the support wall (12) and is operatively connected to the
cylindrical part (34) in such a way that the latter exerts a spring force on the
outer race (30). The spring force tends to push the rolling bearing (20) against
the shoulder (26) so as to compensate operational play of the rolling bearing
(20). The cylindrical part (34) and the passage (18) are configured in such a
way as to interlock with each other, so as to prevent rotation of the cylindrical
part (34) in the passage (18).

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus
for discharging a residual charge from an
electrostatic chuck having one or more electrodes
(110). The discharge process involves exposing a
surface (124) of the electrostatic chuck (100) to nonionized
radiation such as photons or microwaves. The
discharge apparatus includes a radiation surface as
part of a semiconductor wafer processing system
controlled by a computer (106). The source of
radiation may be lamps (138,140) such as "bakeout"
lamps that are generally located within the process
chamber. Radiation from the lamps excite certain
dopant atoms within the chuck material causing the
material to exhibit the photoconductive effect. Such
a photoconductive state allows any residual charge on
the surface of the chuck to be conducted away through
the chuck electrodes (110) even as the chuck cools to
temperatures that do not promote such charge
migration.
